    Pedantically correct pluralisation of "forum"

    Bloody hell. Just because something's 'correct' doesn't mean we should use it. I think it would be easier just to accept any anglicisms of the plurals of Latin loanwords. I mean, we don't follow the Latin rules for gender, cases and moods so why plurals?

    Hilarious entry on Uncyclopedia

    "Followers of the Qu'ran believe that it is better than the Bible because it is also a book of magic. By reciting the entire book from heart, a Muslim unleashes a potent magic spell, which gives him +20 fatwa bonus on all attacking dice rolls and an extra +10 on save rolls, both of which...

    Holding the door?

    I just bestow a straightfoward law, that the fellow following should be within shutting farness of the door. It's not fair to let a door be half shut on the chap, though it's not fair if you have to wait unneedfully.

    Planck length, planck time, and spacetime

    What about Zeno's paradoxes? If units of time are infinitely small then these paradoxes are truly paradoxes, which is a logical impossibility. If we agree upon a 'shortest time', Planck length, then I believe that these paradoxes are just a matter of human perception of motion and time.

    Socialism & Capitalism

    If you're talking about the American healthcare system, it has never been at the whims of the capitalistic mechanism- it was more of a fascist system, giving the illusion of private control but with the government behind it all the way, pulling the levers. Also, forced charity?! I've never heard...

    Your political and religous views.

    No religion, I like Buddhism a lot though. I'm ideally an anarchist-without-adjectives, which is a theory that without centralised government ordering our lives communities will emerge based on preference of individuals (anarcho-communist, market anarchist, etc.) and also which one(s) will...

    The Merits of String Theory

    It's obviously true. The FSM made the universe in His image. Isn't that the undeniable truth? The only reason you can't test it is because he fiddles with the equipment with His noodly appendages, rendering it impossible to "prove" Him and thus render faith pointless. You should all quit trying...

    (a+b^n)/n=x ?

    There is a story about Diderot, the Encyclopaedist and materialist, a foremost figure in the intellectual awakening which immediately preceded the French Revolution. Diderot was staying at the Russian court, where his elegant flippancy was entertaining the nobility. Fearing that the faith of her...
